Acknowledgement and Month’s Mind Mass for Gretta Sweeney, Kill, Dunfanaghy.

The family of the late Gretta Sweeney wish to express our sincere and heartfelt appreciation to everyone who supported us during our sad loss.

Thank you to all who attended Gretta’s wake and funeral, especially those who travelled a distance to be with us.

Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to all of Gretta’s carers and medical team who looked after her with such kindness and compassion, especially in the final years of her life.

A special thank you to Fr Martin Doohan and to Fr Sean Gallagher for concelebrating Gretta’s funeral mass and offering their prayers and support . For those who provided the beautiful music during Gretta’s funeral, we extend a heartfelt thanks. A special thanks also to the staff in Ionad Naomh Fionnán for organising the refreshments after Gretta’s funeral mass.

Finally, a sincere thanks to our funeral director, John Sweeney, for his professional service and his compassionate handling of the funeral arrangements.

As it would be impossible to thank everyone individually, we hope this acknowledgement will be accepted as a token of our appreciation.

Gretta’s Month’s mind mass will be celebrated on Sunday, 9th November at 11.30am in Holy Cross Church, Dunfanaghy.
